Teeth

Out of interest, how many teeth has your LO? Elijah only has his two front bottom teeth and has just had these from 14 months (16 months now). My friends little one is a month older and has 16 teeth!!!!

My dd now has ten teeth! She has eight in top and only two on the bottom. Im already seeing that she'll probably need braces too. She has a big overbite. We are still nursing with all those teeth. But she's very good about not biting the boob.

I was wanting to write the same question, my first dd had pretty much all of them right after first birthday but this lo has only 2 on bottom and 4 on top... but then the 2 way back molars are coming in, just broke through a couple days ago, on top, I thought it was weird they were coming in before the other front ones...

As for speech, I haven't heard of any correlations but i do know teeth are used to produce sounds... and my LO doesnt talk/communicate nearly as well as my first dd did at this age... she does know quite a few words but her speech is hard to understand, and she prefers to talk in what sounds like babble so possibly the teeth help the words come out properly?
